I did this thing for Scenestr Magazine, where they asked me to put together a “Top 5” on any topic of my choice. In my usual social commentary style, I decided to make a dig at reality TV shows by putting together a list of 5 over-the-top fictional reality TV shows, which are actually not […]
It’s very rare that someone pronounces my name correctly, especially on the first go. So I made this little video to teach you how to pronounce “Shameem” in one minute!
So I was surfing Google and I found this BMA Magazine review of my Canberra tour show by accident! What a nice surprise… [pe2-image src=”http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-0-Gg2n_mFdI/VegQLKJx4FI/AAAAAAAADUM/Ce9ROY_SzI8/s144-c-o/BMA%252520review%252520Canberra%252520gig.png” href=”https://picasaweb.google.com/118294268219415625349/PressClippingsUnderOneSunTheSecondCityEtc#6190215471710724178″ caption=”BMA review Canberra gig.png” type=”image” alt=”BMA review Canberra gig.png” ] At The Basement, Friday February 20 Been to The Basement lately?

I performed a “house concert” in an office, as a reward for the Special Sponsor of my album The Second City, Trilogy Advertising and Marketing. It was a really lovely evening, with Trilogy’s employees, contract workers and network of contacts enjoying lovely nibbles and drinks and a chance to catch up. I also performed for […]
I made this lyric video with beautiful black and white photos donated by some awesome people who responded to a call out on my Facebook page! “Give Me A Reason” is a heartfelt, very personal song on my new album, The Second City. Thank you to Clem Bailey, Hiro Ugaya, Todd Wilkinson and Sophie Brown for […]
In October Shameem is hitting the road again, this time without her band, performing intimate solo shows and accompanying herself on the keyboard. She will be travelling up Australia’s east coast, doing 9 shows in 8 cities in 11 days. Tour dates and details are on Shameem’s gig page.
Mostly I’ve been featured on music blogs, but this time I was featured on Baha’i Blog! Check out my interview here.

One pet question that I get whenever I’m doing an interview for a radio station, blog, streetpress or magazine is, “So, where does the title of your album The Second City come from?” So many people ask that question that I thought it would probably make for a good blog article, and that way I […]
Here’s a tiny snippet of me rehearsing “Under One Sun” with the New Era Baha’i Choir… I was a guest artist for a show that they put on in honour of their late founder and conductor (and a good friend of mine), Greg Parker, and we performed this song together at that concert. I get […]
Recently I performed at the fantastic Hidden Treasures festival… the west end of Fremantle is brought to life every Thursday night in July with an array of bands, artists, and DJs taking over four (normally quieter) venues. It’s such a lovely festival and is cherished by the Freo locals, who flock out despite the cold, wet […]
